1. Provider Member (Voting)
Any hospice licensed by the State of Louisiana or Mississippi and whose interests are consistent with our purposes and mission may apply for membership with LMHPCO. A provider member hospice shall be granted one (1) vote.
Provider-Membership dues are based on the number of all new hospice patients admitted under the same State License in the previous calendar year, regardless of reimbursement. The number of physical office locations is not considered when determining the total number of admissions. Each separately State Licensed Provider must have a separate LMHPCO Provider Membership. Note: Each program's patient total information will remain confidential and will not be disclosed in any form. The first physical location of the Provider will be assessed $800.00. Each additional physical location of the Provider will be assessed $250.00 per location.
Dues are $800 annually, plus $250.00 for each additional physical location, plus $2 per new admission, up to a maximum of 350 new admissions per year. First-time Provider-Member dues are $250.00 for the first year of operation or during the initial year of the formation of the hospice. (Although full payment of annual dues is preferred, quarterly installments are acceptable by checking the appropriate space below. Quarterly payments are due: January 1; April 1; July 1; and October 1 each year.)
